Re: unmountable partition and live distro (no space left)

From: Claudio Carbone <hidden>

I'v been told this is missing relevant details.
The original kernel version was 3.2.0-something (standard Ubuntu 12.04 LTS).
I've since upgraded to 3.7 but this has made no difference.
Right now I don't have the dmesg, I'll post it later.

Currently I've been able to mount the partition with btrfs-restore and 
am trying to rsync it on another ext4 volume.

Hello all.

My system failed and I thought of trying btrfs.
After repartitioning and installing, nothing booted and my (btrfs 
formatted) home partition is unmountable (parent transid).
I discovered I can mount the partition with btrfs-restore but, since 
I'm running off of a live usb Ubuntu, mounting fails at some point due 
to lack of space.
So is there a way I can mount the partition on a live distro to 
recover what is recoverable?

Thank you
Claudio
